Objectives: This study evaluates the performance of AI models, ChatGPT-4o and Google Gemini, in answering rheumatology board-level questions, comparing their effectiveness, reliability, and applicability in clinical practice.
Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted using 420 rheumatology questions from the BoardVitals question bank, excluding 27 visual data questions. Both artificial intelligence models categorized the questions according to difficulty (easy, medium, hard) and answered them.
Objectives: This study aimed to validate a Turkish version of the Composite Autonomic Symptom Score 31 (T-COMPASS 31) for assessing autonomic dysfunction.
Patients And Methods: The COMPASS 31 questionnaire was translated into Turkish following a rigorous protocol. Forty-five patients with autonomic dysfunction symptoms related to their primary disease and 45 healthy controls matched for age and sex participated in the study.
Objecti̇ves: The aim of this study was to compare the performance of artificial intelligence models ChatGPT-3.5, ChatGPT-4, and Google Bard in answering Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation board-style questions, assessing their capabilities in medical education and potential clinical applications.
Methods: A comparative cross-sectional study was conducted using the PMR100, an example question set for the American Board of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Part I exam, focusing on artificial intelligence models' ability to answer and categorize questions by difficulty.
Background: Migraine is a prevalent condition with debilitating effects. In the context of pediatric migraine, there exists a notable scarcity of data regarding the effectiveness of exercise interventions. Furthermore, despite the prevalent occurrence of neck pain in these patients, the role of cervical musculoskeletal disorders in the etiology continues to be a debated topic.

Methods: This single-center, prospective, and implementation study with before-after design included five participants diagnosed with PD. Auricular VNS was applied to each participant 3 times on different days.
Objectives: Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a promising non-invasive brain stimulation technique for treating chronic pain, yet its effectiveness in chronic lower extremity pain due to lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) has not been studied. This research aimed to investigate the impact of tDCS on pain, walking capacity, functional status, and quality of life in LSS patients.
Patients And Methods: In this prospective, randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled study, 32 LSS patients received either real or sham tDCS over the motor cortex contralateral to the patient's painful lower extremity for 10 consecutive weekdays (10 sessions).
Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (RED-S) defines insufficient calorie intake for the physiological and athletic functions of the athlete, and accordingly deterioration in the musculoskeletal, hormonal, cardiovascular and immune systems. Herein, we present a 42-year-old female long-distance runner with multiple pelvic stress fractures who didn't complete her prescribed treatment program and wanted to keep running despite being aware of the associated pain and risks. The Goldman dilemma refers to the unsettling reality that a significant number of professional athletes may contemplate sacrificing their lives in order to achieve Olympic glory.

Objective: The aim of this study was to compare demographic and work-related features of persons with hand injuries who sustained a work-related or a non-work-related injury to gain insights into possible predisposing factors for work-related injuries as well as psychosocial consequences of hand injuries from the social work perspective.
Methods: This case-control study was conducted on 30 work-related and 30 non-work-related hand injury patients.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to translate the Central Sensitization Inventory (CSI) into the Turkish language, to perform a psychometric validation, and to investigate its reliability in patients with chronic spinal pain with an organic origin, patients with fibromyalgia, and pain-free control individuals.
Patients And Methods: Between April 2016 and February 2017, the translation of the original English version of the CSI into Turkish was performed using the forward-backward translation method. A total of 100 fibromyalgia patients (6 males, 94 females; mean age: 45.
